In your Volkswagen Golf Mk5, you can find the reverse light relay in the engine fuse panel under the hood. If your reverse light is not working, try swapping one of the fog light bulbs with the reverse light bulb to see if it solves the issue. This will help you quickly determine if the problem is with the bulb or the relay. Another thing to check is the sensor connected to the shifter that signals when the car is in reverse. If this sensor is faulty, it may not activate the reverse lights.
The fuse for the reverse light on a VW Golf MK5 can be located in the fuse box beneath the hood.
